http://www.newsarama.com/...isBOys.htm After a 17 year hiatus, I'm getting sucked back in... This one looks great too!!! Yeah, DC pulled the plug after 6 issues due to the content, but it's back on in July...not sure if it's going to be the same label, though.

That's crazy because DC stopped the series because of its "anti-hero" feeling!!! That says a lotta things about the consensus at DC & their "corporate" thinking (despite them publishing some great stuff.) I think Dan Didio is great when it comes 2 selecting great writers & stories (DC kept publishing wonderful things these last few years) but he's really really terrible when it comes 2 messing with continuity again (post Infinite Crisis mess or rebooting the Doom Patrol 4 no good reason) & taking corporate decisions that have nothing 2 do with art (such as forcing Mark Waid 2 rewrite Lex luthor's origins in order 2 follow the "Smallville" TV show continuity!!!) Anyway, Dynamite are gonna take on "The Boys" with a TPB reprint of the 1st issues & continuing the series. | |

Never heard about it. Could u tell me more? Thanx! Okay, the real deal is that Ezra is my cousin () and I'm always trying to get him "discovered" so I pimp his books whenever I can...but I really do like the Disposible Boy series. It's basically autobiographical about him growing up in a fairly homogenous smallish city and because his mother is white and his father is black he feels that he doesn't always fit in. In #3 he describes his grandparents which is cool to me b/c I know his mom & grandparents and I can recognize some of the people/places in the book. My grandpa recently passed away and Ezra is going to name a character after him in an upcoming book. The Changers is two graphic novels about these guys from the future, when the human race has reached it's pinnacle of development so they have to come back to our time to change it so that in the future humans won't reach their zenith so soon....or something like that. It was kinda confusing to me, I'm not really into sci-fi. The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |
